I know there is not good opinion about onboard sound as source, but I just found out, if I activate "WOW HD Music" in my Realtek settings the sound is clearer, more precise, crisp. Before that it sounded "ok", but somehow muffled. Now it's like real High Definition and much more neutral. I'd say...

Agree with the comfort issue: I always need  to adjust the headphones properly to prevent them touching the driver. In order to achieve this I must push my ear on the utmost edge on the back of the earcup and "under the padding". It somehow works because the driver is angled, but as a...

If anyone is interested in using the headset cable with the mini-microphone:   I just got my package from amazon http://www.amazon.de/Lindy-iPhone-Audio-Adapter-Cable/dp/B0053EOFNQ and the adapter (splitting the single cable into an extra audio/extra microphone cable) works perfectly with...

Made in Thailand :-/ (this almost turned me off somehow...)

Quote: I also had the impression it needs only very little EQ-ing to make bass better, so I mostly forget about it.     @a_recording:   Difficult to say... my impression also was, that the closed earcup was a major reason for an uncomfortable sonic bass pressure (if being upped)...

regarding the sound signature:   I also think the bass could be better - but then found out, that if you crosslisten to music of many different styles the Sony always remains in a comfortable bass strength. As I then slightly -upped some bass frequencies on the EQ - (really not much) - the...

yeah 

Quick note: I am not happy about the Sony customer service: they couldn't answer if the pins of the cable are LRGM or LRMG. I mean come on... at least someone from the company should have known the technical details. But I guess it's as always: customer services just suck.   By putting logic...

Does anyone know the exact pins of the Sony MDR-1R cable plug?   L=left audio output R=right audio output G=ground M=mic   It can be either LRMG or LRGM, but it essential to know which one it is, as there exist 2 types of connectors (if you need to "split" the single cable into...

Quote:   Thanks for reassuring me. It's just being perfectionist and thinking "you can always get a better one" - especially when seeing 98% 5-star-reviews on amazon.com about the VModa M100. But after reading "15mm depth" and by diverse amazon reviews talking about 13mm depth only... I...

Adding to my last post: on 2nd thought and by actual comparing the large earcup of the Sony and the pictures posted by AnakChan http://cdn.head-fi.org/e/e8/500x1000px-LL-e89d11d6_DSC_2741.jpeg - I think I was misled by the "small looking cavity" on the pictures. In fact the cavity is quite huge...

Bought the Sony MDR Brown-Silver now, and I'm satisfied with purchase.   Not going into details here, as most has been said already, but one of the main arguments was comfort: I got ears at least 6.5cm long and 2.5cm standing apart and it works on my head. Note that you may need to put the...

Hello everyone,   I have listened to this phone in a media market and found it very comfortably and good sound. However now I have read, that on 1 cable a microphone is included as well - to be used with iPhone/iPad.   Now, I wanted to ask if this microphone (or better said the plug...
